Months after agreeing to acquire the company formerly known as Gawker Media Group, Univision is laying off at least 200 staffers in a companywide push to operate its digital businesses more efficiently.

The layoffs will entail cuts to the company's digital newsrooms — including that of Fusion, its millennial-focused news brand — and trimming from the business and operation staffs at some of its properties.

Fusion announced the first class of fellows in the Rise Up: Be Heard fellowship program on Wednesday. The 14 fellows are both journalists and community activists who will be mentored by Fusion journalists and execs in a six-month program. Their reporting will focus on a number of issues around social justice, including homelessness, health care for undocumented immigrants and income inequality.

Fusion, the digital news outlet funded by Univision and Disney, is creating a virtual reality unit tasked with bringing the burgeoning reporting tool into its newsroom, according to a memo from Editor-in-Chief Alexis Madrigal.
